The Duke’s Wife is Beautiful But Has a Dark Heart. - Chapter 396
Chapter 396 Hindsight
There were riots in the streets.
The sound of attacking the palace gate can be heard all the time.
There are palace guards outside the palace, standing solemnly on the steps. The long knife in his hand gleamed with cold light.
The emperor was pacing back and forth in the palace, his face turned green, black and yellow, and he had a splitting headache. I sighed in my heart: After all, it was still too hasty. These two people are not consuming each other, but they are both here for me.
“Qing Junzi…I’m afraid you want to Qingjun me!” He pointed outside and yelled.
First, I didn’t expect the two of them to join forces. Second, I didn’t expect that there were so many people hiding under my nose. They move so neatly.
He personally controls the palace defense. The city defense was for our own people, but it was penetrated…and now, it is also blocked by the generals. Even the south gate was breached once…
He has experienced so many things and faced dangers, not to mention how scared he was. However, the greatest obstacle to an emperor has always been being rebelled against! These two pieces of shit! When I went to court again, I was surrounded by a group of ministers. If I didn’t kill a few of them, they would probably laugh at me!
The key point is that since Li Qili became the queen, it was no longer easy for him to hide in the palace and go back to live in Prince Xiang’s Mansion. He will definitely attack Prince Xiang’s Mansion, but I don’t know what will happen… don’t let those two evil obstacles really give him…
If something happens to him, it will disrupt all my moves! Look back, because King Xiang and the prince are divorced.
What should we do?
Qi Youduan got the military talisman and went to see King Xiang. He didn’t go to Prince Xiang’s Mansion, knowing that the siege would be the most severe, and it would be useless if he went there. He rounded off and arrived at a courtyard. As expected, there were many secret guards guarding him. He was relieved when he asked: His Royal Highness Prince Xiang is here!
“Your Highness!” Qi Youduan hurried in with panic.
Li Qili actually held a book under the lamp, with an air of “I remain unmoved”. Even Qi Youduan was deeply impressed; “Your Highness is at this age and has never really gone through big storms. I admire you very much for your determination and determination.”
Li Qili would not tell him that in fact, his back had been soaked with sweat several times! He didn’t know how lucky he was: he returned home the night before and secretly went out to meet guests. Otherwise, it will really be in the bag!
…
Many people died in the concubine’s courtyard, and the smell of blood was everywhere.
Jiang Pingting felt bad for a while, so she reluctantly ordered the people to lock up the princess. Wen Yu helped her change the yard. As soon as we got in and settled down, there was another commotion outside. A palace maid said happily: “Your Majesty! Your Highness is here!”
They did not change their words.
“Pingting!” That was Li Qihuan’s panicked footsteps and anxious voice. He rushed in and saw two women sitting side by side in the room, “Wen Yu? Why are you here?” he asked in surprise.
Qi Wu, who flashed out from behind, was also stunned. His face suddenly turned livid. He glared at Wen Yu and almost got angry: Didn’t he say that he wouldn’t let you out?
But seeing the two women sitting calmly, I felt more at ease. “How are you doing here?” Li Qihuan’s tone was calm, as if the urgency just now did not exist at all.
Jian Pingting said: “What are you talking about…Thanks to Wen Yu and Hu Fei for coming, otherwise, I would really have to confess just now!” She touched her belly, but later she realized that she was trembling all over.
Li Qihuan’s heart tightened, and he came up to pull her. He probably didn’t even realize that he had already developed something called friendship for this plain-looking general’s concubine.
Qi Wu quickly walked to Wen Yu, looked up and down, and asked in a weak voice, “Are you injured?”
Before Wen Yu could change her clothes, she was pulled into a mess and her hair was disheveled. “Don’t worry, we’re fine.”
“How is the other courtyard? Where is His Royal Highness the Prince?” Jiang Pingting asked.
Li Qihuan smiled bitterly: “Finally, there is no danger! Fifteen and Seventeen, as well as Wang Lin and the others are guarding! Song Shang also led people to rush over! I don’t trust you here… Pingting, I am not thinking carefully enough. , which shocked you.”
Wen Yu sighed in his heart, Li Qihuan is going! When did you get this way? ! Qi Wu saw the obvious contempt on Wen Yu’s face and quickly pulled her.
“What’s going on here? Tell me!”
So, Wen Yu told what happened, and with grievance and fear, she acted coquettishly to Qi Wu: “At that time, Xue Ying was still holding the hairpin to scratch my face…” She stroked her smooth face, feeling lingering fear.
Qi Wu’s face was as cold as ice, “It’s really easy for her to die like this!” He decided to go to the Xue family to cause trouble!
“What should we do now?”
Li Qihuan said: “I guess Duke Xingguo’s people are coming soon. I’ll take you back to the other courtyard!”
“Aren’t you going to the emperor’s place?”
Li Qihuan said: “I don’t want to go!”
“Your Highness…then, let’s talk while we walk!” Qi Wu rode a horse and hugged Wen Yu tightly in front of him, “Hold me well, I don’t know what I will encounter on the road! You are really going to scare me to death. I told you not to come out!”
Wen Yu smiled bitterly: “I came just in time. If I were later, I’m afraid something would happen!”
Previously, Li Qihuan and Qi Wu had beaten away all the people surrounding the East Palace Courtyard, and now they were all guarding it. After sending Li Qihuan and his concubine in, Qi Wu and Wen Yu were also thinking about the Qi family and took a detour back to their home.
As soon as I entered the house, the study in front was noisy.
“Is it the fifth master? The marquis is seriously injured!”
Wen Yu even wanted to ask: Which marquis?
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Qi Xiao lying on a stool with his upper body bare and the doctor was giving him medicine. He quickly turned around and asked Wen Yu to wait outside. He went in and asked, “Brother, how are you?”
Qi Xiao grinned: “The gold silk armor given by my mother saved my life. My grandfather was hit by an arrow, and the second arrow came. I helped my grandfather block it. The person who shot the arrow was shot to death by the Marquis’s guard.” “
Qi Wu pursed his lips. Does this mean that both arrows were aimed at the old man? Qi Xiao’s back was black and blue, but there was no bleeding. Entering inside, the Marquis was lying on the small collapse, the arrow had been pulled out, and the wound had been bandaged.
“Doctor, how is your grandfather?”
The doctor said: “Look, I’m not heartbroken, otherwise it would have been… but the wound is very deep. It’s hard to say what will happen now.”
Qi Wu called his grandfather twice, but Qi Hou did not respond. He picked up the arrow next to him and looked at it. It should have been shot with a crossbow. It was a little off, otherwise the old man would be dead.
Suddenly, the Marquis snorted, and Qi Wu squatted down: “Grandpa!”
“Where is Qi Xiao…” The old man’s mind was filled with the image of his eldest grandson helping him block arrows.
“He wore armor and was injured but okay.”
The Marquis closed his eyes: “Go…” He looked at the small door on the wall, “Look… at the military talisman.”
Qi Wu stood up, went over and pulled it open. The small door opened, and it was empty inside.
“Grandfather, the military talisman is gone.”
The Hou Ye was in a hurry and felt a huge pain… He was about to faint again. “Qi Youduan…hurt me.”
“Grandpa!” Wen Yu came in.
Qi Wu quickly took the sheet and covered it with the Marquis. “Li Da Niu is dead.” Wen Yu’s tone was quite cheerful.
Qihou was so angry that he closed his eyes again and ignored her!
“It wouldn’t be nice to leave it like this. Let’s talk about it later…ahem, why don’t we find a thin coffin to bury it first?”
The Marquis still didn’t speak.
“Grandfather, now that the matter has come to this, it’s not appropriate to let the murderer of your first wife enjoy the worship of the descendants of the Qi family, isn’t it? Grandma knows about it underground, how sad she is!”
Qi Hou glared at her, “That’s not the key now! Qi Yang, if King Xiang wins, then you are afraid… but if King Xiang loses, that **** will be in too deep and will use military talismans to mobilize people.
When he came back to hand over the military talisman this time… I’m worried that he has quietly transferred his people to Yanzhou… In this way, it will only take two days to come… If my guess is correct, there will be 20,000 people. I don’t know what he is doing…you all go and stop him! “
Qi Wu pursed his lips and thought about it.
“As for the one at the back… Wen Yu, I’ll leave the family affairs to you! If I’m not dead, he will still take action… you guys…”
Master Hou fainted again.
